Lahja's been so excited about the increase in gifting with the new Gift Boxes, that they've put together a bunch of Hidden Avatars to make it even more fun! They just can't wait to see more gifts fly between users as everyone works together to figure these out! They've added the Unsurprising, Philanthropist, Lovely Gifter, Beloved Friend, and Best Friends Hidden Avatars. Good luck!
Due to recent Staff changes, we're hiring! IcePets is looking for 2 Editors and 2 Moderators to join our team. If you're interested, check our Support Site for position descriptions and how to apply.

Lahja felt it was very limiting to only be able to gift two Items at a time with the existing Gift Boxes. We don't know about you, but we love gifting and absolutely agree with them! Let's shower everybody with even more presents...
Lahja has been busy the past few months crafting two new sets of larger Gift Boxes. They can't wait to see all the joy and happiness these boxes will bring! The Blue Dovu Gift Box, Red Wulfer Gift Box, Yellow Xephyr Gift Box, and Green Cobron Gift Box can all hold up to five Items each.
For even more gifting options, the Glacia Gift Box, Meteora Gift Box, Khalic Desert Gift Box, and Halipar Jungles Gift Box will also all hold up to five Items each! Both of these sets of Boxes can be bought via the Gifting Centre or the Post Office.
When even that isn't enough, the super special, eye-catching, and beyond heartwarming Rainbow Gift Box -- which holds 10 Items! -- can be obtained exclusively from the I.C.E. Shop for 50 IceCash (45 IceCash for Gold Account members). That really special someone will definitely appreciate it!
Happy gifting!

Sadly, it's time for the Egg Hunt to come to an end. The Jakrits have hidden the last of their eggs, and the Makoat stash is all but depleted. Now, they're sweeping up the leftover shells and wrappers, and getting ready to go into hiding for another year. There will be no more Jakrit Eggs hidden around Terrafrost or in NPC Shops and quests. The Randomly Picked Jakrit Morphing Potion and Five Random Jakrit Eggs have also been removed from the I.C.E Shop.
In recognition of all our mad scrambling to gather eggs, there is new set of Items added for purchase in the Easter Store, so go spend those hard-earned Easter Credits! We hope you had fun!

We've had a thrilling run this spring, but all good things must come to an end! Our Jakrit Hunt will come to a close tomorrow, April 21st, at 23:59:59! In these last remaining hours, be sure to give it your absolute all! Find those randomly appearing Jakrit Eggs and hidden Makoat Nests, finish as many Quests as you can, and be sure to restock those extra points from the NPC Shops. Are you panicking, trying to find those last minute Eggs? Well you're in luck -- Jakrit Eggs will now be even more common to find until the end of the event!
That being said, we do have yet another fitting surprise for you all! At last, the Summer Novyn Plush has come to join the rest of their celebratory, seasonal friends. Funded by @Quil, this squishable new toy is now stocking at Plushie Mania and will be requested by the Plushie Quest.
In unrelated news, the Toon Snow Jar can now be frozen into the Toon Snow Jar Ice Cube! Just head on over to the Ice Box to get yours. And in case you haven't noticed, an old favourite, the Bluegreen Trido Ice Cube has received an facelift! If you are still seeing the older image around site, press Ctrl + F5 to update.

We wonder what all is inside?
With the Egg Hunt winding down this week, the Jakrits have been hard at work to put together a basket of extra goodies for us! If you're lucky, you may find the new Springtime Surprise Basket stocking in both NPC Shops and Quests for a limited time. These specially hand-woven treasures will only be stocked for the next two weeks, so get them while you can!
In addition to this wonderful surprise, we also have several new User requested Items and Hidden Avatars for you all to start collect today!
Whet your appetite with the two new edible creations requested by @Nati! Start off with the almost-too-cute-to-eat Panda Onigiri and finish with a Narwhal Cake Pop for dessert. These can be found stocking in the Food Mall and Sugar Rush respectively. It also looks like our Alien friend from the Space Quest has taken a liking to the Panda Onigiri as The Chocolate Lover from the Candy Quest has with the delicious looking Narwhal Cake Pop.
After your snack, you and your Pets can enjoy some quality time playing with the gorgeous Owl Spirit Ocarina requested by @Read or the tropical Banana Ducky requested by @Splash, both of which can be found at the Toy Store! While you're shopping for these fun new toys, don't forget to grab a few extra to be prepared for new requests from the Space Quest!
Lastly, we have not one but four amazing new Hidden Avatars! Good luck puzzling out Careless Spender, On A Budget, and Pollinator -- all funded by @Cowpro! Or get lucky and earn the new Safe Cracker Avatar which was requested by @IcePrincess!
Are you loving these new additions? If you're interested in having your own ideas come to life, you can request an Item, Item Bundle, or Hidden Avatar of your very own over on the Requests Page!

What's that tiny 'Rawr!' I hear? Why, it's the new Baby Novyn! This adorable newborn can be found like the others in the Snow Jar Igloo. If its cuteness melts you so much that you simply can't wait, you can also buy one from the I.C.E. Shop for 500 IceCash (450 for Gold Account members!)
The Jakrits and Makoats are painting and hiding eggs like mad. For the rest of the week, they're ready to whip things up into an egg frenzy! The Jakrit Eggs restocking in shops will now be easier to find.
For even more collecting fun, the elusive Rainbow Krittle Plush can now be obtained by assembling Krittle Plushies in a new Jigsaw Puzzle! Good luck!

Not one, but two 'random' Items! Are you feeling lucky?
Still haven't had your fill of egg-citement? Well brace yourself, because we have some exciting new credit store additions today! If you take a hop on down to the I.C.E. Shop, you can now purchase Five Random Jakrit Eggs for 250 IceCash and the Randomly Picked Jakrit Morphing Potion for 500 IceCash(225 IC and 450 IC for Gold Account Members, respectively). The latter can also now be found in the Easter Store for 300 Easter Credits. Don't forget that the hunt is still on -- so keep up the good work finding those Jakrit Eggs!

If you look up, the sky is full of colour, with the release of a bunch of new balloons along with a balloon revamp!
All the existing colours have received a shine and polish, including the Snowman Quest exclusive Snow Balloon. To go along with the fresh artwork, the rest of the basic colours have also been added!
Say hello to the Bluegreen Balloon, Brown Balloon, Cottoncandy Balloon, Grey Balloon, Ice Balloon, Snowdrift Balloon, and White Balloon! They are so shiny, they can even be used to repair a certain spaceship.
These balloons can be assembled in a new jigsaw puzzle to create the Rainbow Balloon! Give thanks to @Cowpro for requesting both this and the new Rainbow Balloon Ice Cube for your collection!

The Jakrits are hop-hop-hopping around the site dropping eggs everywhere for you to find, while the Makoats sneak their stockpile left and right. To add even more excitement into the mix, our springtime hosts have struck a deal with the shop owners and quest givers to stock Jakrit Eggs in their shops as well as give them out as quest rewards. You never know when you'll stumble upon a Jakrit Egg!
The Easter Avatar is back! It seems to have been slightly changed to be awarded only if you look in the right place. Good luck grabbing this one if you need it.

If you're struggling to collect enough Easter Credits, we have great news -- a new Jakrit Egg Exchange has been opened! It now allows you to turn in all of your unopened Jakrit Eggs for 3 Easter Credits each while keeping the option to turn in your Empty Jakrit Eggs for 1 Easter Credit each.
The Easter Quest has been slightly changed as well! You can now quit Easter Quests for a fee. Keep opening those Jakrit Eggs to turn in your Items. Happy hunting!

Eggs, eggs everywhere...
Spring is in the air and those mischievous Jakrits have been at it again! Every day for the next two weeks, you'll be able to find Jakrit Eggs randomly hidden all over the site. It looks as if they're only letting everyone pick up a limited amount of Jakrit Eggs a day so be sure to grab them as fast as you can. Keep a close eye out as you browse the site, those pesky Jakrits have picked some tricky hiding places.
While the Jakrits have been hopping around hiding their treasures, the Makoats have taken it upon themselves to guard the egg stockpile. If you manage to find the hidden stash, you will be rewarded. Be sure to tell your friends where to look so they can grab one, too. But you'll have to be quick -- the Makoats will try to keep ahead. Even though there is no limit to their games, they'll pick up the pile and move to a new location every 10 minutes. Keep a sharp eye out!

Do you prefer your tea with milk or honey?
Good afternoon, we've just put the kettle on! In fact, the expensive new teas we ordered just arrived! You really must try them, come to the pantry and see...
Such enticing fragrances -- aren't they just wonderful? You're smelling the new Mixed Berry Tea and Darjeeling Tea. Keep an eye out at the Food Mall to pick up some sachets of your own. I hear that Alien chap on Meteora is also interested in some for the Space Quest.
For the true tea lovers out there, you simply must have the lovely Deluxe Tea Box Set! They're wonderfully exquisite and so much work goes into making them. You'll have to collect all the existing teas -- yes, even the new ones -- and assemble them in a new Jigsaw Puzzle to obtain it! Enjoy!
While you sip your tea, why don't you ponder the solution to this new Hidden Avatar. Funded by @Chien_chien, the new Figurines Lover is a must-have for anyone who has an affinity for Figurines. Can you figure out how to get this one?

Have no fear, the Suspicious Presents are here, with some Prankster Pies for dessert!
If you aren't satisfied with the tricks and pranks from yesterday, you can now find the Suspicious Present restocking around the Shops in Terrafrost. Alyson has also whipped up a huge batch of Prankster Pies over at Sugar Rush, so you can find these at an even lower rarity than before.
Grab as many of these two as you can, these changes will only last until April 7th at 23:59:59. Good luck!

Quil is an invaluable member of our art team, consistently producing stellar and beautiful Items for us! To celebrate, we've created the following Item in their honour!
Gaming Dice Set
Even though it's April 1st, this is no joke -- we have a new selection of I.C.E. Shop Limited Stock for you! Breathe in the fresh springtime air that is, not only full of the scent of earth from the new Mushroom Ice Cube but also, rustling through the fur of the Flying Xephyr Figurine. Joining these wonderful new additions and snugly nestling in for the month are the returning Roosting Bird Plushies! Each of these Items are priced at 500 IceCash or 450 IceCash for Gold Members!
It's been exactly one year since Toon Pets showed up in Terrafrost to paint the town grey, and to mark the occasion, they've invited their friends, the Toon Jakrit and Toon Krittle to stir up some trouble! While trying to recolour the Items, they accidentally scrambled all the Pet images instead!
They managed to even confuse themselves with their tricks, so they gave up and left everything scrambled, hopping and skittering off to the Snow Jar Igloo and I.C.E. Shop instead. You can follow them there to pick up the Toon Jakrit Morphing Potion and Toon Krittle Morphing Potion!
With all these Toon Pets hopping around, Gabrielle from the Snow Jar Igloo managed to swipe some fur samples and finally concoct a Toon Snow Jar, which can similarly be found in the Snow Jar Igloo and I.C.E Shop!
Stay tuned, there are more seasonal surprises coming this month!
